This study presents the final results of a project funded by the Technological Initiation Program of the State University of Pará. It aims to reflect the impact of design in cities, especially with regard to the understanding of the sustainable practices in Paragominas / PA. The city became a role model by changing its way of thinking the environmental issues through public policies, supported by the Green Municipalities Program. However, it is necessary to investigate what there is of this question in the collective imaginary that can be visually represented in public spaces. Thus, developing products for these spaces requires not only formal aspects and research of materials, but also depends on promoting the participatory design debate regarding public policies. As a method of research development, the Collective Subject Discourse will be used to identify imaginary and project requirements embodying the design activity.
